Keith Olbermann: "..nobody is asking you to embrace this expression of love"

If you don't embrace it your called a funny term used by queers and their sympathizers to attempt to turn you into a all around hateful person, what is it again? oh yea! "homophobic"

"but don't you as human beings have to embrace that love"

Yes but Olbermann fails to recognize that love is conditional amongst human beings. Most human beings won't accept "love" as an excuse for sexual acts they find inappropriate.

@timboytx - The text was "written accurately" because the writer used understandable Greek words and followed basic grammar to complete his thoughts. Translating it isn't that hard I believe you could even make an attempt by using a lexicon and doing word lookups, the idea should be conveyed for that text pretty easily. It conveys what God wants for us because the Bibleis still preserved till this day...

Gay Marriage is a legal thing and I personally disagree with homosexuality (LGBT) but I didn't vote for something that has legal status written all over it. These folks dont want your acceptance they just want the government give them benefits like they do with Man & Woman.

Yes, "the people" voted against the gay marriage. But this is what Thomas Jefferson said in 1801:"Bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression." -- Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801.

They need to get over it, the people voted and this is what they want. Get over it, get back out to push your cause and try again in future elections

Re: Romans 1:26-27....first convince me that this text was written accurately, translated accurately, and accurately conveys what God "wants" for us, and then we can discuss what it means.

Hey the way I see it the people voted. Live with it. That is our system. Go back to the ballot box again and make a difference next time.
